We can’t deny our love for The Royal Family.
Whether it’s a public appearance at an organisation or attending a family meeting, we can’t get enough of them.
However, there is one special event that tops them all and that is a royal wedding.
One wedding in particular that will go down in history is that of Prince Charles and Princess Diana in July 1981.
The reason that it has become such a memorable event is due to the iconic dress in which the Princess of Wales floated down the aisle in.
Now after nearly two decades since it was last on display, the flawless gown will be going back on display for the public to admire in all its glory.

However this dress was special for so many reasons.
From the oversized puff sleeves to the incredible lace work which adorned the ivory silk taffeta fabric, but it was the gigantic 25-foot sequinned train that followed the Princess down the aisle which stole the show.
In ‘A dress for Diana’ the Emanuel’s reveal how “as she got out, the train expanded and it just kept on coming and coming and you wondered when it was ever going to end.”
“You could hear the crowd gasp with disbelief that a train that long could come out of a coach so small. Everybody seemed to love that magical moment.”

The dress was last on show at Kensington Palace in 1995, and now ahead of what would have been her 60th birthday on July 1st, Prince William and Prince Harry have approved the use of their late mother’s wedding dress for the exhibition.
Prince Harry is also set to reunite with brother William on the date to unveil a new statue of The Princess of Wales at what is said to have been her favourite spot in Kensington Palace, known as the Sunken Garden.
